Wow to all of this! Greg, I was given your book years ago by a girlfriend after my first summer as a my nephews Little League coach. I've read more books related to baseball in some way than I'll ever recall. Yours I remember- It hit so close to home and the laughs were many. Great work and congrats on your recent endeavor as well as being honored at the Hall.

Thanks, appreciate that. Four years after the season in that book I took a Little League team team to the state finals, the first in our area to do that. More laughs: We lost to a team whose star turned out to be UNDER age, and were later dropped from the tourney. My son made team was decided not to play to go to a summer film camp. Good move--he's now in L.A. and doing great in film/game industry....So ya never know...

First, congratulations for your accomplishments and honors.
As a classically trained violinist, I spent several years performing in a symphony orchestra before turning to teaching. Anyway, the stats on the card caught my eye. Beethoven is erroneously credited with seventeen string quartets. Der Grosse Fugue, originally published as part of the Opus 130, is now most often performed separately. But it is a single movement, and as such is not counted as a string quartet. Unless Ludvig comes back for another season, his career total will stay at sixteen. So, I guess that makes it an error card?

Ha, you are correct on the string quartets....
But Beethoven was indeed a true "slugger." Also, quite "crafty." But ended up like Curtis Pride--could not hear but still could track the ball.

Looks like Bob Hope from one of the "Road' movies.
